Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A system, comprising: a sensor; a communication module; and a processor; wherein the processor performs, under power, following functions, wherein the functions comprise: automatic detection, by the processor using a signal from the sensor, that a passenger of a vehicle is experiencing a medical emergency; automatic generation of an alert signal on an infotainment system of the vehicle; automatic turn on, by the processor, an emergency indication light, wherein the emergency indication light is visible to a nearby vehicle; automatic generation of a path from a current location of the vehicle to a target location; maneuver, the vehicle along the path to the target location; automatic identification, by the processor, of a medical facility based upon a location of the vehicle; automatic contact, by the processor via the communication module, to an emergency service and providing the location of the vehicle and a health condition of the passenger of the vehicle; and automatic transmission, by the processor via the communication module, of a medical record of the passenger of the vehicle to the medical facility; and wherein authorization to access the medical record is received from the passenger in advance.
2. The system of claim 1, wherein the system is configured to be a component of the vehicle; and wherein the passenger is a child in a rear facing car seat.
3. The system of claim 1, wherein the system simultaneously identifies the medical facility and contact the emergency service while driver of the vehicle is maneuvering the vehicle along the path to the target location.
4. The system of claim 1, wherein the health condition of the passenger is due to at least one of a choking, a fever, a breathing issue, a change in vital signs indicating a problem in physiological function of the passenger.
5. The system of claim 1, wherein the sensor comprises at least one of a temperature sensor, a heart rate sensor, a respiration sensor, a blood pressure sensor, and a perspiration sensor.
6. The system of claim 1, wherein the communication module is enabled for at least one of a vehicle-to-vehicle communication, a vehicle-to-infrastructure communication, and a vehicle-to-everything communication.
7. The system of claim 1, wherein the alert signal comprises at least one of a text message, a display, a sound, a light, and a combination thereof.
8. The system of claim 1, wherein the target location is a pull over location.
9. The system of claim 1, wherein the target location is a location of the medical facility.
10. The system of claim 1, wherein the vehicle further comprises an image sensor configured to capture an image of the passenger.
11. The system of claim 1, wherein the processor further comprises a machine learning algorithm aided by artificial intelligence configured to detect the medical emergency.
12. The system of claim 1, wherein a pull over decision is made based on a first health data of the passenger and a second health data of driver of the vehicle.
13. A method, comprising: automatically detecting, by a processor using a signal from a sensor, that a passenger of a vehicle is experiencing a medical emergency; automatically generating an alert signal on an infotainment system of the vehicle; automatically turning on, by the processor, an emergency indication light, wherein the emergency indication light is visible to a nearby vehicle; automatically generating a path from a current location of the vehicle to a target location; maneuvering, the vehicle along the path to the target location; automatically identifying, by the processor, a medical facility based upon a location of the vehicle; automatically contacting, by the processor via a communication module, an emergency service and providing the location of the vehicle and a health condition of the passenger of the vehicle; and automatically transmitting, by the processor via the communication module, a medical record of the passenger of the vehicle to the medical facility; and wherein authorization to access the medical record is received from the passenger in advance.
14. The method of claim 13, wherein the vehicle senses a speed of the nearby vehicle for determining the path to the target location and transmits a message with a first instruction for speed, and a second instruction for course to the nearby vehicle.
15. The method of claim 14, wherein the first instruction for speed comprises at least one of a reduction in speed, a maintenance of speed, an increase in speed, and complete stop.
16. The method of claim 14, wherein the second instruction for course comprises at least one of a lane keeping, a lane changing, and a pull over to a side of a road.
17. The method of claim 14, wherein the message is at least one of a broadcast message and an individualized message for the nearby vehicle.
18. The method of claim 14, wherein the message is displayed on the infotainment system of the nearby vehicle, wherein the nearby vehicle displays a first graphic of the vehicle, a second graphic of the nearby vehicle, the path, and the target location on the infotainment system of the nearby vehicle.
19. The method of claim 13, wherein the method further comprises determining zones of influence based on a distance of the nearby vehicle from the vehicle and a first speed of the nearby vehicle relative to a second speed of the vehicle, wherein the zones of influence comprise a high influence zone, a medium influence zone and a low influence zone.
20. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon instructions executable by a computer system to perform operations comprising: automatically detecting, by a processor using a signal from a sensor, that a passenger of a vehicle is experiencing a medical emergency; automatically generating an alert signal on an infotainment system of the vehicle; automatically turning on, by the processor, an emergency indication light, wherein the emergency indication light is visible to a nearby vehicle; automatically generating, a path from a current location of the vehicle to a target location; maneuvering, the vehicle along the path to the target location; automatically identifying, by the processor, a medical facility based upon a location of the vehicle; automatically contacting, by the processor via a communication module, an emergency service and providing the location of the vehicle and a health condition of the passenger of the vehicle; and automatically providing, by the processor via the communication module, a medical record of the passenger of the vehicle to the medical facility; and wherein authorization to access the medical record is received from the passenger in advance.
